  • A. Lange & Söhne Grand Lange 1 watch in rose gold
    The Grand Lange 1, with its large double date window and refined manual-winding movement, best encapsulates the spirit of A. Lange & Söhne. Since its debut in 1994, it has become the ambassador par excellence for this legendary German brand from Glashütte (£31,000).
  • Van Cleef & Arpels Pierre Arpels watches
    If it’s a classic dress watch with an elegant retro character you are looking for, this Pierre Arpels watch by Van Cleef & Arpels is the perfect match. Designed by Pierre Arpels in 1949, it comes in a 42mm white gold case with a slinky white gold Milanese bracelet (£34,100).
  • Arnold & Son Eight-Day Royal Navy watch
    The dial layout of this Arnold & Son Eight-Day Royal Navy watch corresponds to that of an 8th-century marine chronometer; the movement, however, is pure 21st century (£9,760).
  • Louis Vuitton Voyager GMT watch in steel
    Synonymous with luxurious travel accessories, Louis Vuitton’s Voyager GMT is the perfect watch for globetrotters. Masculine, contemporary and imbued with the design codes of the Maison in the form of a commanding letter ‘V’, it is not only useful but stylish also (£4,050).
  • Piaget Polo S Chronograph watch in steel
    Piaget’s original Polo watch, released in 1979, was the watch of choice of the jet-set crowd with a penchant for expensive sporting events. Entirely revamped in 2016, the stylish Polo S (S for steel) is destined to become Piaget’s new luxury sports classic (£10,500).
